The phase evolution, morphologies and absorbency of the synthesized powders were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Field emission scanning electronic microscope (FESEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FFIR) and UV-3101PC spectrophotometer (UVPC), respectively. XRD and FESEM results showed that pure SmBO3 phase was obtained at 750 ℃, with an average original particle size of about 100 nm. FTIR showed that there were apparently concentrated absorbent peaks between 500 and 1400 cm^-1. Moreover, the reflectivity of the powders apparently decreased at the wavelength between 1.05 and 1.15 μm. Therefore, SmBO3 might be a kind of absorbent material for infrared laser.展开更多

Potential of the catalysts in the soot oxidation was evaluated in a temperature-programmed oxidation (TPO) apparatus. The results showed that all the Fe3+ and Zr4+ were incor- porated into ceria lattice to form a pure Ce-Fe-Zr-O solid solution for the co-precipitation sample, but two kinds of Fe phases ex- isted in the Ce-Fe-Zr-O catalysts prepared by other methods: Fe3+ incorporated into CeO2 lattice and dispersed Fe2O3 clusters. The free Fe2O3 clusters could improve the activity of catalysts for soot oxidation comparing with the pure Ce-Fe-Zr-O solid solution owing to the synergetic effect between free Fe2O3 and surface oxygen vacancies. In addition, the activity of catalysts strongly relied on the surface reducibility of free Fe2O3 particles. Holding both abundant free Fe2O3 particles and high oxygen vacancy concentration, the hydrothermal Ce0.5Fe0.3Zr0.202 catalyst presented the lowest Ti (251℃, ignition temperature of soot oxidation) and Tm (310 ℃, maximum oxidation rate temperature) for soot combustion (with tight-contact between soot and catalysts) among the five samples. Even after aging at 800 ℃ for 10 h, the Ti and Tm were still relatively low, at 273 and 361 ℃, respectively, indicating high catalytic stability.展开更多

The effects of the different preparation methods on the phase composition, microtopography, and sintering densification of the resulting Gd2Zr2O7 nanopowders were investigated by thermal-gravimetric and differential thermal analysis(TG-DTA), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR), X-ray diffraction(XRD), and transmission electron microscopy(TEM) techniques. The results indicated that both methods could produce Gd2Zr2O7 nanopowders with an excellent defective fluorite structure. The reaction time was reduced by the SAC method, compared with the CAC method. The nanopowders synthesized by the two methods were different in grain size distribution. The resulting nanoparticle diameter was about 50 nm for CAC and 10 nm for SAC. After vacuum sintering, the sintered bodies also had a different relative density of about 93% and 98%, respectively. Thus the preparation of Gd2Zr2O7 nanopowders by SAC was the first choice to achieve the desired sintering densification.展开更多

Phosphors were synthesized by combustion method and composed of nanorods. Photoluminescence spectra showed that Eu in the sample was reduced to bivalence while Yb remained trivalence. Through a cooperative energy transfer process, the obtained powders exhibited both blue emission of Eu^2+ (around 450 nm) and near infrared emission of Yb^3+ (around 1020 nm) under broad band excitation (250-410 nm) originating from 4f→5d transition of Eu2+. Energy transfer phenomenon between the sensitizer Eu2+ and the activator Yb3+ was investigated via the luminescent spectra and the decay curves of Eu2+ with different Yb3+ concentrations. Results indicated that energy transfer efficiency from Eu2+ to Yb3+ was not high. The poor efficiency can be explained by the long distance between rare earth ions.展开更多

The photoluminescence property results reveal that the red emission intensity of Eu^3+ is strongly dependent on the Sm^3+ concentration. Only the Eu^3+ luminescence is detected in the Eu^3+-Sm^3+ co-doped CaYA1307 phosphor with 393 nm excitation. However, under the characteristic excitation (402 nm) of Sm^3+, not only the Sm^3+ emission but also the Eu^3+ emission are observed. A possible mechanism of the energy transfer between Sm^3+ and Eu3+ is investigated in detail.展开更多

The synthesized Y203 :Eu3+ phosphors doped with different metal cations and doping ratios are characterized by x-ray diffractometry (XRD), fluorescence and phosphorescent spectrophotometer. The co-doping metal cations are advantageous to the development of Y203:Eu3+ lattice. All the samples can emit red light peaked at 611 nm under 254-nm excited. The luminescence intensities of co-doping samples are increased because the cations increase the electron transition probability of Eu3+ from 5D0 level to 7F level. The fluorescence lifetime of Eu3+ (SD0 --+7F2) is increased by doping metal cations.展开更多

The optimized conditions for preparing yb^3+:Gd3Ga5O12 nanopowders were discussed. The heat behavior, structure and morphology of powders were analyzed with thermal analysis (TG-DTA), X-ray diffraction (XRD), infrared spectra OR) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). TG-DTA analysis revealed that the weight loss of the precursor occured below 800 ℃ and its crystallization temperature was 830.6℃. XRD and IR analysis showed that the precursor converted directly into pure GGG at a relatively lower temperature (900 ℃) without any other intermediate phase. The lattice constant was 1.2377 calculated by extrapolation method. TEM results indicated that the spherical powders showed good dispersity and had a relatively narrow size distribution with average particle size of approximately 40-50 ran, which was favorable for good sinterability of Yb:GGG laser ceramic.展开更多

Potential of the catalysts in the soot oxidation was evaluated in a temperature-programmed oxidation (TPO) apparatus. The results showed that all the Fe3+ and Zr4+ were incor- porated into ceria lattice to form a pure Ce-Fe-Zr-O solid solution for the co-precipitation sample, but two kinds of Fe phases ex- isted in the Ce-Fe-Zr-O catalysts prepared by other methods: Fe3+ incorporated into CeO2 lattice and dispersed Fe2O3 clusters. The free Fe2O3 clusters could improve the activity of catalysts for soot oxidation comparing with the pure Ce-Fe-Zr-O solid solution owing to the synergetic effect between free Fe2O3 and surface oxygen vacancies. In addition, the activity of catalysts strongly relied on the surface reducibility of free Fe2O3 particles. Holding both abundant free Fe2O3 particles and high oxygen vacancy concentration, the hydrothermal Ce0.5Fe0.3Zr0.202 catalyst presented the lowest Ti (251℃, ignition temperature of soot oxidation) and Tm (310 ℃, maximum oxidation rate temperature) for soot combustion (with tight-contact between soot and catalysts) among the five samples. Even after aging at 800 ℃ for 10 h, the Ti and Tm were still relatively low, at 273 and 361 ℃, respectively, indicating high catalytic stability.
文摘Gadolinium zirconate(Gd2Zr2O7) nanocrystals were prepared via two different combustion methods: citric acid combustion(CAC) and stearic acid combustion(SAC). The effects of the different preparation methods on the phase composition, microtopography, and sintering densification of the resulting Gd2Zr2O7 nanopowders were investigated by thermal-gravimetric and differential thermal analysis(TG-DTA), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR), X-ray diffraction(XRD), and transmission electron microscopy(TEM) techniques. The results indicated that both methods could produce Gd2Zr2O7 nanopowders with an excellent defective fluorite structure. The reaction time was reduced by the SAC method, compared with the CAC method. The nanopowders synthesized by the two methods were different in grain size distribution. The resulting nanoparticle diameter was about 50 nm for CAC and 10 nm for SAC. After vacuum sintering, the sintered bodies also had a different relative density of about 93% and 98%, respectively. Thus the preparation of Gd2Zr2O7 nanopowders by SAC was the first choice to achieve the desired sintering densification.

文摘CaTiO_(3)-LnAlO_(3)(Ln=La,Nd,Sm) is a perovskite-type microwave material system characterized by a moderate dielectric constant εr,a high quality factor Q×f,and a small temperature coefficient of resonant frequency τf,making this system promising for microwave devices.However,its high synthesis temperature and sintering temperature limit its industrial applications.In our work,single phase0.7 CaTiO_(3)-0.3 Sm_(0.9)Nd_(0.1)AlO_(3)(7 CT-3 SNA) was synthesized via the sol-gel auto combustion method using citric acid as fuel at a relatively low temperature.After being calcined at 600℃ for 2 h,wellcrystallized 7 CT-3 SNA powders with 30-50 nm average particle size were achieved,suggesting good sintering activity.The new and narrow order band at about 800 cm^(-1) in the Raman spectra indicates a high ordering degree in the B site of 7 CT-3 SNA solid solution.Compared with the solid-state reaction method and co-precipitation method,the 0.7 CT-0.3 SNA ceramics fabricated by the current method possess a much lower calcination temperature,a similar εr value,and an improved Q × f value.The optimum microwave dielectric properties of εr=43.54,Q×f=54375 GHz,and τf=-6.3 ×10^(-6)/℃ are obtained for the CTSA ceramics derived from the sol-gel auto combustion process.Therefore,the 7 CT-3 SNA ceramics prepared in this study are potential dielectric materials for microwave applications,indicating that the sol-gel auto combustion method is a good alternative strategy for the fabrication of CaTiO_(3)-LnAlO_(3) ceramics.

文摘BaMgAl10Ol7:Eu^2+,Yb^3+ was investigated as a possible quantum cutting system to enhance solar cells efficiency. Phosphors were synthesized by combustion method and composed of nanorods. Photoluminescence spectra showed that Eu in the sample was reduced to bivalence while Yb remained trivalence. Through a cooperative energy transfer process, the obtained powders exhibited both blue emission of Eu^2+ (around 450 nm) and near infrared emission of Yb^3+ (around 1020 nm) under broad band excitation (250-410 nm) originating from 4f→5d transition of Eu2+. Energy transfer phenomenon between the sensitizer Eu2+ and the activator Yb3+ was investigated via the luminescent spectra and the decay curves of Eu2+ with different Yb3+ concentrations. Results indicated that energy transfer efficiency from Eu2+ to Yb3+ was not high. The poor efficiency can be explained by the long distance between rare earth ions.

文摘A novel red-emitting phosphor, CaYA1307: Eu^3+, Sm^3+, is synthesized by a combustion method at a low temperature (850 ℃), and the single phase of CaYA1307 is confirmed by powder X-ray diffraction measurements. The photoluminescence property results reveal that the red emission intensity of Eu^3+ is strongly dependent on the Sm^3+ concentration. Only the Eu^3+ luminescence is detected in the Eu^3+-Sm^3+ co-doped CaYA1307 phosphor with 393 nm excitation. However, under the characteristic excitation (402 nm) of Sm^3+, not only the Sm^3+ emission but also the Eu^3+ emission are observed. A possible mechanism of the energy transfer between Sm^3+ and Eu3+ is investigated in detail.
文摘Y2O3:Eu3+ phosphors co-doped with different metal cations (Li+, Na+, K+, Mg2+, Ca2+) are prepared by the gel- combustion method with Y2O3:Eu3+, and R(NO3)x (R = Li, Na, K, Mg, Ca) serving as raw materials and glycine as fuel, calcined at 1000 ℃ for 2 h. The synthesized Y203 :Eu3+ phosphors doped with different metal cations and doping ratios are characterized by x-ray diffractometry (XRD), fluorescence and phosphorescent spectrophotometer. The co-doping metal cations are advantageous to the development of Y203:Eu3+ lattice. All the samples can emit red light peaked at 611 nm under 254-nm excited. The luminescence intensities of co-doping samples are increased because the cations increase the electron transition probability of Eu3+ from 5D0 level to 7F level. The fluorescence lifetime of Eu3+ (SD0 --+7F2) is increased by doping metal cations.

文摘Gadolinium gallium gamet (GGG) nanopowders doped with ytterbium ions (Yb:GGG) were synthesized with citric acid as a fuel via gel combustion method. The optimized conditions for preparing yb^3+:Gd3Ga5O12 nanopowders were discussed. The heat behavior, structure and morphology of powders were analyzed with thermal analysis (TG-DTA), X-ray diffraction (XRD), infrared spectra OR) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). TG-DTA analysis revealed that the weight loss of the precursor occured below 800 ℃ and its crystallization temperature was 830.6℃. XRD and IR analysis showed that the precursor converted directly into pure GGG at a relatively lower temperature (900 ℃) without any other intermediate phase. The lattice constant was 1.2377 calculated by extrapolation method. TEM results indicated that the spherical powders showed good dispersity and had a relatively narrow size distribution with average particle size of approximately 40-50 ran, which was favorable for good sinterability of Yb:GGG laser ceramic.

文摘Heteroatom doping is an efficient approach to regulate the fluorescence properties of carbon dots.Using aminophenylboronic acid as the raw material,a combustion method was developed for the synthesis of boron,nitrogen-doped carbon dots(B,N-carbon dots).The B,N-carbon dots emitted green fluorescence and displayed high resistance to both photo bleaching and ionic strength.A facile fluorescence sensing approach for Cu^2+ was fabricated via static fluorescence quenching.Under optimal conditions,a rapid detection of Cu^2+ could be completed in 2 min with a linearity ranging from 1 μmol/L to 25 μmol/L and a detection limit of 0.3 μmol/L Furthermore,the proposed method showed potential applications for the detection of Cu^2+ in natural water samples.
